Donate to Aid Kerrville Flood Survivors

Hill Country Helpers is raising funds and supplies to help those impacted by the devastating July 4th weekend floods in the Texas Hill Country. All proceeds will go toward supplies for the victims - water, tarps, blankets, toiletries, canned goods/nonperishables, etc. - that we will drive out and drop off at the shelters and reunification locations in Kerrville, Texas. This disaster has left Kerr County with limited access to resources, so our goal is to take what we can out to those folks to help them in a dire time of need.

I started attending summer camp at Heart O' the Hills in Hunt, Texas (adjacent to Kerrville for those who are unfamiliar with the area) in 2005 with my little sister. I spent 12 summers out there as a camper with her, then as a Heart LITe, and finally as a counselor. Even after my time as a counselor ended, I continued to visit camp and the people who made it so special, including Jane Ragsdale whose life was taken by the flood. My aunts and their daughters also attended the Heart, and my grandmother attended Mystic down the road. Needless to say, we have some deep, emotional ties to the area. My family also lived through the Memorial day flood that went through Wimberley, Texas in 2015, so we know first-hand how terrifying and destructive a flood can be. I know that money cannot replace everything lost, but the goal is to do what we can with what we have.
